摘要

在本研究中，我们以美国大学采用 BITNET（互联网的早期前身）作为对大学所在县知识基础的外生冲击，研究知识外溢如何创造创业机会。通过使用县商业模式数据，我们发现创业（以县内企业数量的增长来衡量）与该县大学采用 BITNET 之间存在正相关关系。此外，这种关系在高科技行业和小型企业中更为明显。我们还发现，一个县采用 BITNET 后，该县的专利和引用数量也会增加。这些结果表明，当地大学的知识溢出会对一个地方的创业机会产生很大影响，这与创业的知识溢出理论是一致的。

Knowledge spillover and entrepreneurship: Evidence from BITNET

In this study, we investigate how knowledge spillovers create entrepreneurial opportunities using the adoption of BITNET, an early predecessor of the Internet, across universities in the U.S. as an exogenous shock to the knowledge base in the county where the university is located. Using County Business Patterns data, we find a positive relationship between entrepreneurship, measured by the increase in the number of establishments in a county, and the adoption of BITNET at a university in that county. Further, this relationship is stronger for establishments in high-tech industries and for smaller establishments. We also find that the number of patents and citations in a county increase after the adoption of BITNET in a county. These results indicate that knowledge spillovers from local universities can have a strong impact on entrepreneurial opportunities in a location, consistent with the knowledge spillover theory of entrepreneurship.

期刊介绍： Research Policy (RP) articles explore the interaction between innovation, technology, or research, and economic, social, political, and organizational processes, both empirically and theoretically. All RP papers are expected to provide insights with implications for policy or management. Research Policy (RP) is a multidisciplinary journal focused on analyzing, understanding, and effectively addressing the challenges posed by innovation, technology, R&D, and science. This includes activities related to knowledge creation, diffusion, acquisition, and exploitation in the form of new or improved products, processes, or services, across economic, policy, management, organizational, and environmental dimensions.
